Fulham vs Newcastle United

Fulham host Newcastle United in Premier League. This preview compares historical records dated before the prediction was locked with the model's pre-match probabilities. Probabilities describe estimated outcomes, not guaranteed results.

Across their last 5 recorded league matches, Fulham collected 8 points (2 wins, 2 draws and 1 losses). Newcastle United earned 7 points from 5 matches (2 wins, 1 draws and 2 losses). These are separate recent-form samples, not a forecast of the final score.

At home, Fulham have 2 wins, 1 draws and 2 losses in their last 5 recorded home matches. On the road, Newcastle United have 2 wins, 0 draws and 3 losses across 5 away matches.

Where full-quality xG is available, Fulham average 1.21 xG and 0.94 xGA over 5 recent matches; Newcastle United average 1.23 xG and 1.68 xGA over 5 matches. xG coverage can be smaller than the recent-results sample.

At the prediction timestamp, the reconstructed league table places Fulham in position 16 and Newcastle United in position 9. The table uses matches dated before the prediction timestamp; later backfills cannot be independently excluded.

The database contains 5 earlier head-to-head meetings in this competition, shown below. Historical meetings provide context, not certainty.

This analysis is based on available league records and the pre-match snapshot. Missing samples are not estimated; player availability, injuries and tactical claims are not inferred.

Fulham and Newcastle United drew 1–1. The following review separates the final score from the locked pre-match model forecast.

Expected goals were 0.62 for Fulham and 1.03 for Newcastle United. Newcastle United generated the higher xG total. Fulham scored +0.38 goals relative to xG and Newcastle United scored -0.03 relative to xG. Goals minus xG is a descriptive difference, not proof of finishing skill or luck in one match.

Fulham registered 11 shots, with 5 on target (shot accuracy: 45.5%); Newcastle United recorded 9 shots, with 5 on target (shot accuracy: 55.6%). Shot accuracy is shots on target divided by total shots, not a measure of chance quality.

The model's highest-probability 1X2 outcome was Home (49.2%); the actual outcome was Draw, so the leading selection did not match the result. The pre-match probabilities were not recalculated after the fixture.
